Comments

The standard order of compositions is given by A066099.

A composition of n is a finite sequence of positive integers summing to n. The k-th composition in standard order (row k of A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. a(n) is one fewer than the number of maximal weakly increasing runs in this composition. Alternatively, a(n) is the number of strict descents in the same composition. For example, the weakly increasing of runs of the 1234567th composition are ((3),(2),(1,2,2),(1,2,5),(1,1,1)), so a(1234567) = 5 - 1 = 4. The 4 strict descents together with the weak ascents are: 3 > 2 > 1 <= 2 <= 2 > 1 <= 2 <= 5 > 1 <= 1 <= 1. - Gus Wiseman, Apr 08 2020

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..104.

Formula

For a composition b(1),...,b(k), a(n) = Sum_{1<=i=1<k, b(i)>b(i+1)} 1.

For n > 0, a(n) = A124766(n) - 1. - Gus Wiseman, Apr 08 2020

Example

Composition number 11 is 2,1,1; 2>1<=1, so a(11) = 1.
The table starts:
  0
  0
  0 0
  0 1 0 0
  0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0
  0 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0
  0 1 1 1 0 2 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 2 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0
